The stuff of motoring legend, Ford's Thunderbird was in production from 1955 to 2005. The model was reintroduced in 2002 after a five year gap following a vogue for retro-looking designs harking back to the classic looks of the past blended with modern styling and mechanicals. Like the original version, the new Thunderbird was a two-seat coupe / convertible powered by a Jaguar-designed V8 allied to a five-speed automatic gearbox. The eleventh generation Thunderbird was built at Ford's Wixom Assembly Plant between 2002 and 2005.

Having previously formed part of a large private collection, the stunning example offered here has just c.1800 miles registered on its odometer and is understandably described as being in "excellent" condition as regards its bodywork, red paintwork, engine, automatic transmission and black leather interior. Specification includes the Luxury Pack and a body-coloured hardtop complete with famous portholes. Acquired as a gift for the vendor's wife, the car is only being offered for sale due to a change of plans. Offered with Swansea V5c and current MoT to 18 October 2018, with no successor scheduled by the manufacturer when production ended, this last-of-the-line Thunderbird is definitely one for the shrewd collector.
